Abstract :
A 60GHz-band doubly-balanced transconductance (Gm) mixer with an on-chip linear L-C combiner for RF and LO signal summation and impedance transformation is described. Class-AB biasing is employed for low quiescent DC power consumption (360μW at 1.2V). At fLO=58GHz and PLO=0dBm, the Gm-mixer prototype realizes 6.9dB (50Ω) NFDSB, 6.2dB power conversion gain, -4.7dBm input-referred P-1dB, and +4.2dBm IIP3.
